TKrazyO Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I'll work on it again on Thursday. I have a ton of stuff to edit and making all these changes is taking me away from that. I was trying to outline the text to make it easier to view since the gradient alone will make the words hard to see without it. But I don't want the outline to overpower everything. Just enough to see but not enough to blot it out. A middle ground. It's just hard to do within paint.net since you need to use all these effects AFAIK to accomplish that. It's looked a bit ugly the times I tried. Quote Link to comment
TKrazyO Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I got some plugins for paint.net so I was able to get outlines for the words. The idea that I came up with was inverting the red used for Ninfora for the light blue color of Thursday Night Throwdown. I outlined it in black and have a darker rainbow gradient behind that. This is the result. Spoiler 1st Ninfora Logo Variant 2nd Ninfora Logo Variant I'm able to change the main color of Thursday Night Throwdown if this isn't to anyone's liking. alienboyva 1 Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) I dig it! TNT has an 80’s vibe with the colors, outline, and font. 😎 As for “Ninfora” I like the first one best. The second one is too dark. Oh, BTW, the gradient outline isn’t that noticeable when looking at the smaller thumbnail size (336 x 188). Maybe bump it up by 1 or 2..? Just a quick suggestion. EDIT: Just testing things out really quick (gradient outline size wise)... Spoiler Something like might be good.... *Text not sized correctly to fit the thumbnail Edited February 7, 2020 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment
avalonknight Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 It work. The outline for "TNT" subtle enough to not be overpowering. And an interesting idea: Change the color of "TNT"'s text to represent certain holidays. Like pink for Valentines. PAXEast is coming up, so red for that week. Etc. TKrazyO 1 Quote Link to comment
TKrazyO Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Here's tonight's stream on YouTube. I'll put what I have in the results screen. I'll have to make Throwdown smaller for that gradient border example. Quote Link to comment

avalonknight Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 That was a very good run this week. Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Since tomorrow is Valentine days, why don't go with setups with either red or pink in them tonight? @alienboyva you can be Kirby of course. To me it will be like any other day with my love Toadette but in kart she deserve the prancer, with the parasol and those white wooden wheels. How lovely for someone as lovely as her. <3. alienboyva 1 Quote Link to comment

alienboyva Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) First my internet decides to f-up, right when the tourney starts. Then Bowser decides to trip over "The Cord" (Didn't you learn anything from Iwata and Reggie?) and most of us get DC'd. Then I keep getting slammed with items. Despite all that, I still had fun. Good races! 24 minutes ago, DLurkster said: Thank you Canadian Shaggy for the races. Rank-Roo, Raggy! Edited February 14, 2020 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment

Surge135 Posted February 20, 2020 Author Share Posted February 20, 2020 Seems like we are gonna be trying to do tacos for dinner on Thursdays, which is fitting because of Kezay's infamous quote of the evening of referring to someone as "You taco eating--!" whenever he gets hit by some killer items.
